Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for the manufacture of a polyalkylene terephthalate such as polybutylene terephthalate. In particular, the process comprises employing a titanium-containing catalyst formed by the reaction product of tetraalkyl titanate and a complexing agent comprising a phosphorous, nitrogen or boron atom. The process is used to prepare polyalkylene terephthalates characterized by improved hydrostability, as well as compositions derived therefrom.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an improved process for preparing a modified polyalkylene terephthalate by melt polycondensation followed optionally by solid state condensation comprising reacting an alkylene diol and polyethylene terephthalate, wherein polymerization occurs in the presence of a catalyst complex formed by reaction of tetra(alkyl) titanate and a compound selected from phosphorus-containing compounds, nitrogen-containing compounds, boron-containing compounds, and combinations thereof.
